Default Katech Street Attack LS7 build video, start to finish

This video is almost 1 year in the making. It documents the build of our 640hp, LS7-powered, Street Attack Camaro SS. Watch as we pull the engine, Paul "the Colonel" Pulholsky builds this LS7 at 16x speed, followed by installation and upgrades as well as drag racing.

Enjoy

Jason,

Who did the driving at the strip?

Nothing better than hearing what compression does to the sound !

I can't wait to hear mine fired up!

I'm the driver.

The car has 11.3:1 compression and runs on pump gas.

But the audio leaves a lot to be desired. What's up with the Middle East flavor?

It is a techno band called Juno Reactor. They have had music featured in many movie soundtracks including The Matrix Reloaded. The tempo fit the accelerated engine build perfectly and I enjoy many styles of music including techno.

SUPER video and driving. It is good to see my car will be in the hands of an expert driver. It looked to me like the engine was built in about 2+ minutes! That tech would be a killer on a drag race team.

I am like Mike. I can't wait to see his dino video.

On your dyno sheet posted above, it looks like the Stock LS7 peak HP is approximately 532 ... I thought you had posted before that all the LS7's dynoed right at 505 HP!???

The graph is expressed using STP correction factor, not SAE. Additionally, that "stock" graph probably had our dyno headers and was running on a MEFI system.


Stock LS7s DO make 505 SAE on stock manifolds and calibration.

That's a kind offer Jason. I suspect that would lead to worse power addictions than I now have.

Great choice of music! Rotorblade from Juno's Beyond the Infinite would work too, unless you have something from Younger Brother.
